Mine was terrible. It was way back in secondary school. I was eventually expelled. Till date,I wish I never did it. I don't know how to handle that now because I have political ambitions. I am a right standing man now but who will believe that after hearing that I was expelled because of 'expo' in secondary school. I wish the world will just forgive me. |

I have done it Many times, Not in university exams but in almost all the internal exams. Never got caught ever, guess i am good in it LOL. Any how i would share one of the interesting events, It was university exam and every one was supposed to submit there mobile phones but some how i forgot, later i realized i have it and i thought it would be stupid to submit the phone now so i kept it, finally greed came to my mind i opened the phone i wend directly to one of the websites http://www.howtoexam.com/index.php?option=com_university&task=paper_search&Itemid=58 it contains more study material than my course books . I copied as much as i can in rush of adrenaline and got nearly caught in university, thank god no one called me as it was not on vibration even. Never did it again. |

I never carried expo during my university days but I was guilty of helping out my friends in writing some exams for them. In my 3rd year, I decided to sit for a friend for a 2nd year course which 90% of my set mates had found very difficult but I had made an A in it. In fact, I was the highest and among the only 3 to have made an A in that course from my department when the result came out. As I got into the exam hall, I was fidgeting like freezing fish. I kept telling myself, 'what if they catch you today, your own is finished'. The arrangement I and my friend had was to register for the course (it was manual registration) by swapping each other's course registration form but having our own actual passport photographs pinned on the forms. It worked during the registration as the register man barely knew us, as we were from another department. As the exam day approached my temperature really went up as I grew very nervous. Fast forward to the exam day, we got checked in and we sat down and started writing. Then from nowhere, this new lecturer in that department just walked up to me. I have a kind of face that if seen before, you would definitely remember seeing me before if you saw me again. In fact, people would regularly walk up to me like they knew me or met me before and I barely knew them. I could tell he was doubting that I was a carryover student (he thought I had a serious student look I guess), he asked me for my school ID card which I told him I did not have. He looked at my course registration form and I could tell he doubted the name was really mine. He then asked me to call out my registration number (my friend's) which I quickly did without thinking twice (I had crammed it just in case). Not satisfied yet, he asked me for any other form of identification which I told him no and pulled out an ATM card which my friend had given me just in case (of course ATM cards do not carry passport photographs) and showed him. Still not satisfied, he let me continue writing anyway. I finished writing and left the exam hall. School was over for the semester. Next semester resumes and I come back to school, my departmental secretary (my school mother) calls me to tell me that while I was on break, that lecturer had come to my department with a course registration form bearing my picture but with another name and another course registration form too (another guy in my class had similar arrangement with someone else) and asked her to confirm if she knew the people in the passports and their names. The secretary and I were very close, I would bring stuff for her from home whenever I came back so she covered up for me and said she did not know us. Still unsatisfied, this man then approached a lecturer in my department who pulled out our class album and the man was able to trace my picture in the class album and got my actual name! She said he was very serious about the discovery and he reported it to the senior lecturer of the course to have us all face the academic panel (this course was from another engineering department compulsory for all engineering departments and the lecturer was a new lecturer trying to make a name for himself) but my saving grace was that the senior lecturer went through my own class result from the previous year and seeing that I was among the, probably 20 in all of over 500 engineering students, few who made an A in his very difficult course, did not want to go that far, so basically he just failed my friend and the other guy from my department. Chai, despite all that I had written for him. His result would have been a pure A had it gone through. That was it until I got back. She then suggested that I still go and see the senior lecturer and beg him so as to not further the case to panel. With my friend I wanted to help out, we went to the senior lecturer's office to beg him, he just looked at my innocent face smiling and said he never wanted to take it to the panel anyway because I made an A in his course, that he would have done it since before I came back from break if he wanted to, and warned me to not repeat it again. My friends always said I had such an innocent-looking face that even when I'd commit a crime they'd let me go so easily. Co-incidentally, while I was on break at home I had a terrifying dream one night about returning to school and I was in trouble over an exam I had written for a friend. Upon waking up my mind raced to the exam I had written before I left school, so I prayed it away as I believed that it a glimpse of the future had been revealed to me in advance to prevent its occurrence by praying it away in the present. On returning to school and the secretary told me that, it just confirmed the dream I had the previous month. Then one day into the new semester as I was walking casually from hostel to class, I chanced upon the junior lecturer (he had no car of his own yet as he was still new) walking down the same road towards engineering faculty. I greeted him and he was telling me how I was lucky to have gotten off, I was just smiling sheepishly with him and kept greeting him, 'thank you sir, thank you sir'. I may have greeted him over 50 times in 5 minutes. ANOTHER NEAR INCIDENT: I wrote another course for this my same friend and he had an A in it. The exam avenue was so tensed, I nearly peed on myself. The lecturer invited police men and security officers to patrol the exam avenue! Turns out that he does that every year and they catch as many as 5 impersonators every year. Just when I was half-way through with writing, some hefty police men, about 3 of them, stepped into my exam hall and stared every single one of us in the eyes (looking for suspicious signs I guess). Jezez, I was shaking inside and managed to hold a calm demeanour on the outside. Next thing I heard from one of them was, 'we need to double-check all these candidates here' (holy moses, what did I just hear? , double check ke? Double check who again, me? When I am 60% done already. On hearing that I started calculating my distance to the nearest window for escape if they came near me , bad times can bring out the villain in erstwhile good people I guess ), then the exam invigilator (one of the laboratory ladies from our department who was coded) stood up and told them, 'I have checked all of them already and they are all original'. With one stern suspicious look, the men scanned our faces and left. That was my saving grace that day. Nna, na so I take begin write fast make I comot there before they return again. I finished an hour early, submitted my paper and walked out the door. My legs were terribly shaking that someone could shout 'hey you stop there' and start investigating, until I walked a safe distance away and I calmed down. I stopped by the roadside for a couple of minutes to calm my heart beats down before continuing. In fact, when I reached the hostel that day I had to take an emergency nap because I think my blood pressure had risen too high from my fear of being caught. Good thing, when the result came out my friend had his A. His joy knew no bounds and that was my satisfaction. I risked my life several times helping out my friends in many exams they were stuck in especially during my third year and fourth year but on getting to final year I stopped totally because it was risky and by then all the lecturers already knew everyone in our final year class, so it became harder to impersonate another final year class guy, that the lecturers already knew, in a lower level course, especially if they are invigilating. The remaining of the exams I took were much easier to navigate through, in less tense environments. I simply did my thing and left. 7 Likes 1 Share |

My 100 level 1st semester exam back then in the dreaded AAU Ekp. It was an elective course (ELS 103), so the exam was slated for 11am and the venue was the popular NLT hall which can contain a thousand student. The course was an easy one, but due to my hustling, i didn't have time to read. So i have to use "chukuli or ochuko(helper)." The exam started, and everything was going smoothly for me until one of the English lecturer popularly called "mallam" walked in. He was feared by many, (those muslims with long beards) and i could remeber a girl telling me to stop, i ignored her. Then i heard "Young man, stand up" before i could say "sir" he tore my answer sheet and then dragged me to the lecturer of the course who was already smilling and giving me the malpractice form to fill, but as a warri boy wen i be, "instead of champaigne to waste, make belle kukumah burst" i hit the hands of the mallam and took off with my ID card. 2 Likes |

I am not a saint, and I do not claim to be a genius, but it is very sad reading this post. What baffles me more are the comments that followed and the fact that it made front page. Perhaps one day, smoking weed will be celebrated on nairaland. To all those who believe their posts are just for the fun of it, others will come and read in the future.

My own was early this year. The thing is I do snap all my note pages into my phone. So when I get a question, I just brought out my phone, open gallery, zoom and start writing. On this faithful morning, everybody was eating the cover of their biro but I was writing so I think that was what made the invigilator focus on me. He eventually caught me looking down but before he got to my seat as I always sit at the back, I had put it back. He searched and got my phone. It was an iPhone6 and the lecturer are all those lecturers wey no tap at all. He's an su. He kept pressing but the phone no gree on. He was wondering wch kind of phone is this and I insisted sir I'm not doing anything with my phone, in fact I don't have battery on it. Can't u see its not on. This man still dey use force press my phone home button o. So I quickly grab it from him he den call someone else to check, but before they arrive to my seat. I don off phone patapata. That was how the other man we call prince wey wan tap small collected the phone try look am then concluded that the phone no get battery, my heart was smiling. So I was stopped and couldn't finish the paper as bringing a phone to the exam hall alone is an offense. I still get B for the course anyway 1 Like |
